How to limit community search by tag

[Former Member]

Hi Sap Community,

i was just redirected here from the old experts.hybris.com page. Can somebody tell me how I can narrow my search by tag?

For example when I search for the term "datepicker" I only want to see results from the tag "SAP Commerce Cloud" and not "SAPUI5" or something else.

Thanks in advance.

Actually, I think that it might be possible.

1. If you use the search in the upper right part of the page (https://search.sap.com/search.html) and you type some search term (in my example order), then filter by content type (I used Blog, Discussion and Question) you will get something like this: https://search.sap.com/search.html?t=order&n=1&s=boost&f=TYPE_IDS%3A103734897624396894939639~1548530...

2. Then you need to get the TECH_IDS for the tag in which you are interested. In my case this is SD (Sales and Distribution). Get the URL of the tag (https://answers.sap.com/tags/209057551571413566377230676804921) and take the part after tags/ (in my case this is 209057551571413566377230676804921).

3. Now add to the URL from step 1. +SM_TECH_IDS:<the value from step 2> before &src=defaultSourceGroup. In my case this value is +SM_TECH_IDS:209057551571413566377230676804921.

The URL looks like this: https://search.sap.com/search.html?t=order&n=1&s=boost&f=TYPE_IDS%3A103734897624396894939639~1548530...

It seems to work (I checked a few items in the result list at random) but it is far from user-friendly and it probably makes sense only if you are really desperate.

wow... it's worth a blog post (and the tags are here: https://answers.sap.com/tags.html)

So, searching datepicker in SAP commerce cloud (tag "3A73555000100800001224"): https://search.sap.com/search.html?t=datepicker&n=1&s=boost&f=TYPE_IDS%3A103734897624396894939639~20...

Hahaha, thanks for your incredible effort! But what heck SAP?!? If your backend already supports this kind of search, why doesn't the GUI reflect it?

No way! It's by design...

Undocumented functionality???

Hi Alexander,

I didn't find a way to do so via the search, though there are 'primary tags' on Community that are all present on this page https://answers.sap.com/tags.html

Also if you'd open a blog post with this 'datepicker' tag (which falls into the category "User tags") and click it, you'd be able to view all blog posts with this tag: https://blogs.sap.com/tag/datepicker/

And it goes the same way with Answers, as I understand: https://answers.sap.com/topics/datepicker.html

Best regards,
Kirill.
